      Summary:
      When using @e selectors to target villagers, that were previously unloaded, it fails to execute and says "That entity cannot be found".
      Note: Recently the same issue happened with silverfish, might be affecting all mobs (never happened with other entities though)
      Note 2: Had this happen with Armor Stands as well, fairly certain that this happens with all entities
      Note 3: Having two entities with the same UUID and killing one causes same behaviour

      How to reproduce:
      1) Spawn a couple of villagers (e.g. spawn-egg or summon command)
      2) Teleport away to unload their chunk
      3) Teleport back to them
      4) Try targeting them with @e (e.g. /kill @e)
      5) It should give the "That entity cannot be found" error for most of them
